Raleigh career coach here: I'll update 20 resumes for free, all by email

34 Upvotes

Hey r/trianglejobs, I'm Brett, a professional career coach based in Northwest Raleigh. I run Critical Path Executive Coaching, and over the past couple of years I've worked with senior leaders at places like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia and Cisco, plus a lot of founders and operators of smaller businesses.

The job market's been rough for a lot of people I know here, so I want to give something back between now and the New Year.

I'm going to do full resume updates for 20 people, no charge.

Here's how it works. Everything happens over email, so there are no calls to schedule. I'll need three things from you:

-Your current resume

-3–5 job postings that are the kind of role you're going after My -Career Evidence Intake form, which takes about an hour.

I'll be honest, the form is the part that takes real effort. It's how I pull out the accomplishments and numbers that usually never make it onto a resume, and it's a big reason the final version ends up much stronger than a cleanup. If you can't set aside the hour, this probably isn't a fit right now.

In return, you'll get a rebuilt resume aimed at the roles you sent me, along with notes on what I changed and why.

If you're interested, DM me with "Reddit resume" in the subject line. I'll take the first 20 people who send everything in.

Note: My work has predominantly been with senior leaders in technology and technology adjacent industries. However I do have experience working with folks in public sector, private sector, academia. Etc. Depending on where you go this is a $300-$1500 service.

Edit: I've got a couple questions so I wanted to answer them. Firstly I'm getting a lot of interest. I will keep taking people until I have 20 folks that have returned that intake form. That's what puts you in the queue.

Secondly, my website is CriticalPathHQ.com

Edit2: Hi Everyone, I'm happy to help but unfortunately, I'm at the point where I have to start a waiting list. Feel free to still message me if you want to be on it.

If folks drop from the list or if/when I open more slots next month I'll reach back out.

For Hire Tired

18 Upvotes

I’ve been applying to roles left and right. I’m also on career sites and have submitted my resume to many places but I just can’t seem to land anything. Nearly everyday I’m getting the dreaded “we’ve gone with another candidate email”.

It’s so frustrating. All It takes is one yes but literally no one is saying yes. I’ve been on the hunt for a while now. I’m grateful to be employed currently but it’s a job that doesn’t fulfill me, pay enough nor does It offer any career progression. And i fear the longer i stay with the current company the further removed i am to any relevant experience for the jobs i apply for.

Searching for: Entry level product support, IT support, Customer success, Business development representative and any other roles relevant to these.

Other Bonds Accounting

Anyone have any interview tips related to securities and bonds accounting? Also pivot tables and vlookup? I think this interview will be more detailed then previous interviews. Or maybe I'm in my head about lol I feel so unprepared after months of being told other people are more qualified for the position. I'd rather be over prepared.
